Jam Jar was formed by a team of creatives who were keen to develop as theatre-makers after drama school, and the other strings they had to their bows - across directing, writing and composing. It became clear that children’s theatre was a shared passion, but that this could also be extended to address the bigger picture. Without wishing to patronise or preach, they aim to educate young, innovative audiences on the current ecological crises, by making memorable, optimistic stories to illustrate the subject-matter, and hoping that adults are also jumping at the chance to bring the kids! This has expanded into providing workshops in schools, which allows the company to create opportunities to experience theatre-making, science and conservation efforts, for the generation who are inheriting these global issues.
